Jim Sanford of Sanford/Strauss Architects, a practicing architect in the state for the past thirty years, now has his office on Farr Lane in Waitsfield, Vermont. Known for his energetic spirit and creativity, his wide range of interest has led to projects in a broad spectrum from component design and fabrication to city planning, including residential, industrial, and commercial work throughout Vermont and the U.S. His extensive construction experience results in the personally crafted quality that separates his work from the rest. Featured in the “New Americans” exhibition in Turin, Italy, his work has been published and exhibited widely, most recently, in a one man show “Dreams Come True” at Norwich University. He has taught architecture extensively and regularly acts as a critic at architectural schools throughout the US.
